Festivities.
There is always something going on in the Golden City – every season has its annual events and you will be busy year-round going to classical concerts, film festivals, the ballet and the like.
The Spring Festival, for instance, is huge; a first clue towards its fame is the fact that the official website is called festival.cz, nothing more.
